I claimed a bunch of Moxie token over the past few days – this appears to have accumulated organically as a result of my casts and interactions. I cannot tell what the mechanism is by which this occurs but it seems to be that when certain people respond to you it generates a lot of Moxie, whereas others do not. So you may have a trending and popular post but if the more powerful accounts don't engage with it there is not much Moxie generated. I think it would be more democratic and come closer to achieving organic economic viability if the mechanism were more based on engagement agnostically rather than favoring certain accounts. At least the favoritism should not be so wildly disproportionate and can allow for posts enjoyed by lowbies to generate rewards rather than building around a few power users.

if it favored engagement indiscriminately then @geoffgolberg's homeboys with the warehouses full of users would create 100k accounts and just reply to each other. there are issues with leveling and the weights and they do lead to unintended outcomes but the way to solve it is def not to 'democratize' it

It's about the distribution of Far Scores being so top heavy, smoothing out said distribution would democratize the system Democratizing the system can be done in such a fashion that accounts engaging in coordinated inauthentic behavior (CIB) are no more likely to game it than they currently are Far Score quantifies an account's influence within the network, and influence can be assessed without incorporating engagement (see OpenRank's Following Rank, for example) The newly spun up accounts you're referencing would have low Far Scores, and thus replying to each other would not yield much Moxie Let them reply to each other all day while inflating DAU & hidden below the Show more replies section..
